Eaton has picked up a contract supplying power and thermal management systems to HP's A$119 million data centre project in Western Sydney. The power management vendor's A/NZ general manager Craig Gob confirmed the deal.

Although a value was not placed on the contract, it covered both static uninterruptible power supplies for the facility and "thermal management" systems for some of HP's data floors. "We're providing thermal management of some of the servers with [technology from] our Wright Line acquisition," Gob said.
